Ike rules. I've played Path of Raidiance, and it Rules as well. Ike was always my best. I can't wait to see what he can do in Brawl.

Either that, or his entrance.

Yeah, that's true.
I might've found a new move for Ike, unless it's just his forward Smash being charged.

Watch at 4:00. He starts charging a move with his sword back. The tip of Ragnell as well as Ike himself starts shining and you can tell it will be a powerful move. Any ideas on what move it might be?
Also, I saw Ike run from one end of the stage to the other. He's about Link's speed.

It's the forward special move. Notice the shining and the smoke.

Okay, apparently another site reports that Ike's FS is like Links as opposed to using the electrical attack that ign proposed. I really hope we get some clear confirmation on what it actually is soon.
But how do you know that this is his forward special move? Has someone proved that he shines and can charge up for his forward special? I'm just wondering...
Before in that same match you can see Ike charging and dashing to the left afterwards.
About Ike's FS, Destructoid said the following:

I don't think that Ike will be as good as Marth was. Marth was the perfect combination of speed, power, offense, and defense.

Who cares? This time its going to be more balanced(hopefully). Marth definitely had a lot of advantages compared to uh, lets say mario =)
Ah, well, I am pleased to know that. :D I hope he can use this multiple times in the air, even though I doubt it.
I don't either, but that's why I like him even more. He's not TOO good.
Yep. Balance = Good. He's not that fast, but Aether is WIN.
Anyone know what his Down special might be or what it is?

I hope he doesn't replace Marth.
New find! (I think.)
I've just found one of Ike's alternate colored costumes. I was watching a high resolution video provided by a member on this board of one of the IGN battles. Two players just HAPPENED to scroll over Ike's icon at the same time. I paused it then and it showed his original color and an alternate one. It looks like his sword is silver, his cape is golden/yellow, and his suit is a light gray, maybe. EDIT: After finding another view of it, it seems as if his armor is black. ^^
I apologize for not posting links... I just thought this would catch people's attentions more easily. If it really IS a problem I can change them to links.

Sweet, if his armor is really black with that color, that would be bada***.
Anyways, I think that Ike will be ishly slow, but end up making up for it with his strength and move sets, i mean, think about it, maybe he has a lot of quick damaging moves such as elbowing the enemy, and also has the massive attacks.

Now THATS a colour change XD

Ike has more style than Marth IMO <_< I don't know about the whole "who's better in a fight" but yeah Ike just looks cooler than Marth.
Ike doesn't have any kind of style, he is just brute force, but that is what makes him awesome.
Yush! I calculated the damage from his forward smash yesterday (it wasn't full charged). It came out around 25%. His up smash (I think it was...) did about 19% damage to Samus at the very beginning of that Delfino video. His eruption move did around 29% to two opponents, and it didn't look fully charged. Ike is gonna be hella strong. :D
Plus, Aether just rocks. I also can't wait to see Ike's grabs and down special. I also heard his neutral attack is a punch. That's cool, considering Marth ALWAYS used his sword.
It looks like we know every color for Ike. His regular suit, his blue one, he HAS to have a one based on red (beings his cape is red and his suit is blue), and HAS to have one that is green. And of course there is the golden cape, black armor one that I posted. Too bad Marth had that exact same one, only with more black. Let's hope most of it is the goldish yellowish color. Black still rocks, though.

Golden Ike for the 5 hit = 100% combo XD

Hmm, I have a quick question. I've been looking at the smash wiki, and it says tentative names for the rest of Ike's special moves. Now what I'd like to ask is what those moves are exactly. It doesn't describe them there, and I'm horrible at analyzing the video/can't tell what's a special or not, so can someone shed some light for me?
http://www.smashwiki.com/wiki/Ike_(SSBB)
Anyone notice this? They have tentative names for Ike's forward special and down special.
Forward special = Whirlwind Sword
Down Special = Ranger Critical
*Wants to see what his down special looks like in action*

That might have just made those moves up.
Exactly what I was gonna write.
Again, it says tentative.

That would be greatly appreciated.

Ike is really cool he's like Marth and Roy together but a lot stronger. another color is revealed in the delfino plaza vid from IGN his cape is blue but i cant see it too well...

His outfit there is actually reminicent of Sigurd. It's a blue cape with a white shirt. =/
I'm kind of disappointed with Ike's alternate costumes.
NONE of them are of his class promotion... =(
I thought maybe his FS would be his class change, but (apparently) a Link copy? aw man.
I'm still going to use him, but it would be nice if they added that in somewhere.

I was wondering this too. Or at least word of what it was like from the conference demo...

No video of Ike's FS, just a description. Same with MK's and ZSS's FS.
Not like Ike can really do much else unless he steals special abilities from his game companions like a princess we all know, so it was pretty obvious he was going to copy and palette swap Link's FS.
I'm glad to see that Ike stole Link64's forward smash. lol
Is it just me, or is Ike taking a little TOO much from Link? hm....
(I'm an anti-Ike person for those who don't know)

As far as I can see, Ike isnt replacing Marth.

Are you seriously telling me you don't see the comparison between Ike's f-smash (shown above) and Link's f-smash from Smash 64? I sure do.
But I'm not angry, because it's a cool attack, and I'm glad to see it return. It fits Ike very well and was awesome to watch when that move killed someone, because it was always so forceful.

It is ssb64Links attack, but it's all good. The double stroke fits Linky bettah anyway
